    Cut a small hole in center of each circle.
    Place circles of dough between single layers of waxed paper until all are
    rolled and ready for deep frying.
    Heat 2 inches of shortening in a heavy pan at medium high heat.
    Fry bu�uelos in hot shortening until they are puffed and golden brown on
    both sids, turning once.
    Drain on absorbent towels.
    Coat the bu�uelos with a cinnamon sugar coating or glaze (recipes below)
    before serving.
